"Open the door for that scapegoat," one of the Vilnius gang members laughed from inside.
As the people of Durran watched the unfolding scene with a mixture of curiosity and concern for the human's safety, the door to Rideon Funds creaked open. Stepping into the doorway, Michael found himself face to face with a green-skinned orc adorned with numerous tattoos and piercings, clearly aiming to intimidate him.
"I'm here to ensure the hostages are alright," Michael stated calmly, his voice unwavering.
"Try not to become another hostage," the orc replied with a cold, humorless chuckle. With his large hands, he thoroughly frisked Michael from head to toe, searching for any concealed weapons.
Having stashed his armor and dark swords within the system storage, Michael remained unperturbed by the search.
